Subject: Correction on wrong pronunciation of Afrikaans /ee/ and /oo/

Hi, all!

 > I made a booboo the other day when I responded on a question
on how the
 > Afrikaans _ee_ (as in E. deer) and > _oo_ > as in (E. moor) is
pronounced.

 I wrongly stated that a swingy sound /j/ is added in between the
/oo/ and /ee/.
 > It should have been a voiced /h/ swingy sound.
 As for example:
  >
 > [f at rmo:{h}r] _vermoor_
 > [f at rme:{h}rd at r] _vermeerder_
 >
Hope I did not cause any funny talk...

Cheers!

Elsie Zinsser
